Ah, thats an easy one.

Since now (or for while), to show a control is has to have at least a
Parent. In the past the owner was erroneous used as a parent. (The owner is
the VCL/LCL class owner, not the graphical owner). Thats why the button
doid show up in the past and didnt till now.
(You can try to create a button without parent in Delphi!)
